In the joint assembly occurred this noon. Il
was all on part Of the Republicans, who dis
tributed their votes among the various DEM

weaken, and with the help Of the Democrats,
when they break, to elect Democratic sena-
tor who is not as distasteful to the RepubH-

Republicans have given up all hope of elect
ing Republican, and it Is their apparent in
tention to secure the election of Ex-Governor
Bedle or Thomas Kays. These two are as
hostile to Albeit as are the Republicans.
The Democrats will laugh at the move of the
Republicans, and declare it will be impossi-
BILE to carry the scheme to completion. The
ballot to-day resulted: Albeit, IS; Sewell, "a;

the Morgan line steamship docks, pier 81,
North river, which was so fierce that within
an hour the whole pier was destroyed The
Lone STAR one of the steamers of the line,
was badly damaged; three lighters, loaded
with cotton, were consumed and property
estimated at from $3.50, 900 to $1,000, 900 was
swept away. A strong northwest wind pre-
vailed which quickly carried the flames be-
yond the control of the firemen. The pier
was loaded with bales of cotton, hides and
other merchandise, which were quickly in a
blaze, causing binding smoke, which
greatly impeded the firemen in their efforts
to subdue the flames
The police boat patrol and the fire boats
and an army of tugs were summoned, and
the most desperate efforts made to save the
shipping. The steamer Lone Star, which
was lying alonsde the dock, was towed out
in the stream with her rigging and wood
work ablaze She fortunately had little or
no cargo on board. The loss to the steamer
by fire or water will be considerable Chief

their lives, for some Of the sparks ignited the
cotton and the dock between them, and the

off with much risk by tug. Half an hour
